黑料不打烊

The Museum of Modern Art presents Projects 107: Lone Wolf Recital Corps. The Lone Wolf Recital Corps, a multidisciplinary performance collective founded in 1986 by artist and musician Terry Adkins (American, 1953鈥�2014), has an accumulative, rotating membership of collaborators in various musical and visual arts disciplines. During Adkins鈥檚 lifetime the Corps performed within and in conjunction with Adkins鈥檚 exhibitions; described by Adkins as 鈥渞ecitals,鈥� these performances incorporated spoken word, live music, video projection, and costumed, choreographed movement. For Adkins, these 鈥渋nstallation based experiences [issued] from an ongoing quest to reinsert the legacies of unheralded immortal figures to their rightful place within the panorama of history.鈥� The Lone Wolf Recital Corps鈥� performances, which Adkins orchestrated with the collaborative improvisation of the Corps, have commemorated and celebrated such figures as John Brown, John Coltrane, Matthew Henson, Bessie Smith, and others.

Projects 107 will be the first exhibition to reunite the Lone Wolf Recital Corps since Adkins鈥檚 death. Conceived as a series of live performances by the reconstituted Corps, a changing group of artists will reprise selections from the group鈥檚 repertoire in an installation of Adkins鈥� sculptures. The exhibition will be supplemented by documentary video of earlier recitals, as well as performance props, costumes, and ephemera that trace the history of the Corps.

Projects 107 will bring together an intergenerational roster of artists and musicians, including Sanford Biggers, Don Byron, Jean-Paul Bourelly, Vincent Chancey, Arthur Flowers, Charles Gaines, Tyehimba Jess, Rashid Johnson, Demetrius Oliver, Cavassa Nickens, Clifford Owens, Kamau Patton, Dread Scott, Jamaaladeen Tacuma, Robert Wisdom, Tukufu Zuberi, and others.
